Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The veins on the old ladys forehead throbbed. You, youre a b.a.s.t.a.r.d. Your parents have raised you. Dabao and Baoya have eaten so much rice in their house. Each of them is fair and tender. Its fine if you didnt earn money in the past, but now that you have money, you cant even bear to cut off a piece of meat for them. Dont you have any shame?

Madam Liang shrank her head when she was scolded. When Baoya heard her name, she raised her head in a daze. Her small face was covered in pastry crumbs.

The old lady was afraid that she would scare her granddaughter, so she suppressed her anger and said to her kindly, Third daughter-in-law, now that Dabao has started studying, the first thing the teachers in the private school teach is filial piety, right? In the future, when he becomes successful in his studies, you should also hope that he will be filial to the two of you. But look, youre not filial to your parents. Then, Dabao will learn from you in the future. When he has money and power, he wont care about you. Itll be too late for you to regret it then.

Madam Liang was stunned. She hadnt thought that far ahead.

Seeing that she had relented, the old lady immediately lit the fire while it was still hot. Besides, your parents dont know about Dabaos studies, do they? Shouldnt you tell them and make them happy?

Madam Liangs eyes lit up. Thats right, she should bring Dabao back and show him off.

Teacher Yu was very fond of Dabao and had said several times that he was smart and had good comprehension.

At the thought of this, Madam Liang nodded and said with a serious expression, Mother, youre right. Ill cut off a piece of meat and go to my parents house tomorrow to show Dabao how filial I am as a mother.

The old lady was speechless. Dont flatter yourself She thought.

Oh right, Mother, I wont bring Baoya over. Therefore, I still need Mother to help me look after her for two days. She will stay here with you today. Shes still young, so itll save her a lot of trouble.

Alright, I know. The old lady did not expect her to take Baoya away. One Dabao was enough to cause trouble. If she added Baoya, she might have to hit him. Baoya, stay here. You should leave quickly. Oh right, at least a pound of meat. If its a little fat, it wont make sense.

Madam Liangs heart ached a little, but she still agreed.

She had received her salary and did not need to bring Baoya along. On the way back, Madam Liang was so happy that she could jump up and down.

The old lady walked to the counter and said to Lu Erbai, In-laws are unlucky. How did they give birth to such a heartless thing? When something bad happens, she thinks of them every day. When something good happens, she forgets them completely.

Dabao had been in private school for more than 20 days, but no one in the Liang family knew about it. If word got out, people would laugh at them.

The old lady touched Baoya. Dont learn from your Mother in the future.

Baoya grinned at her.

After Madam Liang returned, she began to prepare to go to the Liang family the next day.

Lu Sanzhu came back and saw her in high spirits. He was curious and wondered why she had changed her att.i.tude. Lu Sanzhu only came to a realization when Madam Liang told her what the old lady had said.

Although he also felt bad for the money to buy meat, his Mothers words still made sense.

It was a pity that he didnt have any rest tomorrow, so he could only ask Madam Liang to greet his father-in-law, mother-in-law, and brother-in-law on his behalf.

Madam Liang agreed. Early the next morning, she went to the market and cut a piece of meat that weighed a whole catty.

Then, she dug Dabao up from the bed and led him to the Liang family.

Madam Liang originally wanted to borrow Second Brothers mule carriage, but unfortunately, she did not know how to drive it, so she could only give up.
